Dry Fruits Milkshake Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons almonds
• 2 tablespoons cashews
• 2 tablespoons pistachios unsalted
• 2 tablespoons raisins
• 4 dates pitted
• 2-3 dried figs
• 2 cups whole milk chilled
• ¼ teaspoon cardamom powder
• slivered pistachios & almonds for garnish

Steps

1. Put the almonds, cashews, pistachios, raisins, dates and dried figs in hot water and leave them soaking for about an hour or overnight.
2. Drain off the water, peel the almonds and throw away their skins.
3. Make a smooth paste by blending the soaked dry fruits with ½ cup milk.
4. Blend in the rest of the milk and the cardamom powder until creamy. With a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix, you can instead blend all the soaked mixed dry fruits, milk and cardamom together to a smooth, creamy texture.
5. Pour the shake into glasses, add some chopped nuts on top and serve it chilled.
